Why go now
At $859 per person, or $1,717 for two, this fare is $146 below the highest fare we saw for these dates. That's 15% under the $1,005 top of the 12 offers we compared. With Pod Times Square at $1,413 for 7 nights and $190 a day each for spending, our budget for two comes to $5,791. Mid-November in Manhattan means highs of 45–55°F and lows down to 33°F, mostly overcast. That's coat weather, and it suits indoor plans: Broadway shows, mornings at the Met or MoMA, Chelsea Market, long dinners. A full week gives you room to see a lot and still have slow days after the long trip from Hawaii. All prices are all-in, taxes and fees included, as we found them on Oct 12, and they can change at any time.
The kind of trip this is
This is a city vacation built on culture, food, shopping and nightlife. You do your days on foot and by subway and spend your evenings at shows or in restaurants. It suits couples and friends who like to stay busy and don't mind cold, gray weather. With a week, you can go at an easy pace: a museum or a long walk in the morning, a neighborhood to explore in the afternoon, then dinner and a show.
